About the Item

We have an aesthetic sense peculiar to Japanese people. And we introduce the unique items that only we can do, the route of purchasing in Japan, the experience value so far, and the way that no one can imitate. Japanese antique black chest "staircase chest" (late Edo period-Meiji period) / tansu cabinet It is a chest of drawers from the late Edo period to the Meiji period (1800-1912) in Japan. This was called "kaidan-tansu", and when a person went up to the second floor of the house, the stairs were made as a chest of drawers. There were many around the Edo period. It was used in some wealthy homes and shops. Originally, it has two parts, upper and lower, and is taller than five steps. This remains only in the upper part. There is almost no such thing in Japanese houses today. It's very valuable. You can also sit down. You can also use it as an exhibition stand. Since it is an antique item, it may have small scratches or defects, worm-eaten marks, or warped wood. Please consent in advance.

Japanese Antique Pottery Hanging Vase/Edo/1800s/Boat-Shaped Vase

Located in Sammu-shi, Chiba

This is a black-glazed boat-shaped pottery made in the late Edo period of Japan. This will be a hanging vase. Pour water directly into this and decorate the flowers. Also, perhaps this is a pottery called Seto-yaki. Seto is an ancient kiln located in Aichi Prefecture. Various shapes and colors were produced there, and in the late Edo period, dark glazed pottery was also produced. When a dark brown glaze is applied, the areas with thick glaze look black, and the areas with thin glaze look brown. I put water directly into this and left it for a day, but there was no water leakage. I would say it is in very good condition. Although it is a small item, it has a very strong presence. It has a glossy and elegant appearance. There are many types of Seto pottery...
